PERFECT script, but mediocre acting

With a few words, this is one of the best storylines there are. It seems to be kinda mysterious and sci-fi in the beginning, but turns all things upside down in the end and shows how stupid people can get and (no offense guys) especially in the US, where there seems to be a paranoia about.... I wont tell anything. Just watch it if you get the chance. It's worth it. 8/10 (because of the average or even BAD acting).

A great short film!

Wow, my friend Peter showed me this movie today, and I have to say I loved it. The part that really shines through is the writing, you can tell that it's a great script. The writing and directing are decent enough, but not stellar, for me, the story was really the hook. The ending completely threw me for a loop, too. Great movie and I'd defenitely look out for the writer to have a career in the future!

Best Short Film... Ever.

This film, which I had the pleasure of seeing on a segment of short films on TV, was definately the best short film I have seen. Its goal was to get the viewer hooked instantly and tell an intruiging story, all in the 15 or 20 minutes of the film's length, and this was surely accomplished. In the film, the principal of an elementary school receives a warning from the future about a horrible accident, and it is up to him to try and stop it. The film sets its own rules and plays with our imaginations. With the film came an accompanying interview with its director, who seemed obviously proud of this incredible work, his first movie ever. I urge all who read this to find a way to see this great work of cinema, no matter what it takes. The future may depend on it...

An unusual movie, with a surprising twist.

I viewed this movie several years ago, and still remember how much I enjoyed it. I had the opportunity to see it at Boston University as part of a student film festival. While the acting wasn't the caliber of many films I've seen, it was still quite convincing, with a combination of professional and amateur actors. The plot of the film was quite unique, with a true indie feel to it, but it was also quite professional. Ben Cleveland, the producer, did a particularly outstanding job, as you will note if you have an opportunity to see it. Excellent scenery--it was filmed in Boston--with a great surprise ending.

I think the kid is on to something...

I have seen this movie on IFC, and although it is admittedly a low-budget film, I found the writing to be pretty darn good. If you are looking for a multi-million dollar production, you definitely won't find it here. In fact, the acting itself could use some help. But from a screen writing perspective, I was pleasantly surprised. At least it is not the same old regurgitated crap constantly bombarding our eyes as of late. For those who may not have fully appreciated "Bobby Loves Mangoes", try "Night of the Dog", one of the award winners of the Palm Beach International Film Festival, and give the screen writing at least another shot.
